6’1 PG Cam Hobbs Cam Hobbs 6'0" | PG Preston | 2023 State ID || Preston High School || 2023 ||
Cam has a great pace to his game/ Impressive on how he gets he ball in his hands on one end of the floor and he is immediately scanning the floor and getting rid of the ball and putting it on the money up the floor to shooters and cutters. Breaks players off the dribble and he is an ideal PG that will get other going with the style that he likes to play. Pass first PG that is an elite passer.
6’7 F Tate Hess Tate Hess 6'7" | PF Preston | 2023 State ID || Preston High School || 2023 ||
Tate is a big body who can likely play the 4 at a small school, but he rebounds the ball well and he is not bad at contesting shots and blocking shots. Defensively he is solid and he rebounds well. In the paint he could do some damage.
6’8 PF Samuel Lapumba Samuel Lapumba 6'9" | PF Canyon Ridge | 2023 State ID || Canyon Ridge High School || 2023 ||
Kid was granted an extra year which means he is going to be a problem as he is bai and raw. He has a lot of power to his game. Dude is a bruiser and he powers through and over people. Speedy for a big guy that can get up and down the floor from rim to rim. Would love to see a NJCAA team pull the trigger on him and help him develop and get more time on the floor for development purposes.
6’8 F Mason Hill || Canyon Ridge High School || 2025 ||
Big fella is raw. He has some good feel for the game and his footwork is coming along. In time this kid will be a force and with so much size at a young age. He could really keep going and make a big time name for himself. At 6’8 with a 6’11 wingspan he is going to be a block shot machine for years to come.
6’10 C Michael Day Michael Day 6'10" | C Middleton | 2023 State ID || Middleton High School || 2023 ||
The big fella is raw but he is a big dude that really clogs that paint up. He does well contesting shots and hauling in rebounds. He is still in need of development but he could really hit the ground running at the next level when he gets in the weight room and works on those simple fundamentals. He has a low risk and high reward type of feel.
6’2 SG Druw Jones || Preston High School || 2024 ||
This kid can shoot it and when he is in the pick n’ roll he is a bi time threat as he uses slight little hesi-step backs to set up his shot. He has a quick release when he is dribbling and they way he sets up his shots off the bounce is tough because he does not give away that he is shooting. It is crazy to see how often he is open. He should not be left open because he is deadly. Catch and shoot three’s are what he is hunting for and he is good from beyond the arc.
